Method To Prepare:

Pick the rajma and the urad dal and remove all the stones and dirt from it. Now wash the dal well and soak it in water for an entire night. Make sure you add about 3 cups of water to the dal and rajma since it increases in size and absorbs the water.

In the morning, drain the water from the dal, add the dal to the pressure cooker with three cups water, a little ginger, salt and red chilli powder and cook it for about three whistles or till the time the dal and rajma are soft and mushy. If the rajma is not cooked in three whistles, then keep the pressure cooker on low flame and let it cook completely.
